New York in review
Well, I have finally arrived home from New York. I had a wonderful time, but was surprised that my suitcase accompanied me home looking not much different than when it had left with me. Most of my purchases were either necessities or accessories. I didn’t really buy any new clothes in New York. I know…the shopping mecca of the U.S. and I didn’t buy anything good. I just wasn’t into shopping this time around. For some reason, I was more intrigued by being away somewhere different, taking in the atmosphere, the environment…the street style.
I observed that the typical outfit (not worn by tourists) for New Yorkers looked something like this:
Not one to jump aboard a trend that I feel may be somewhat short lived, I opted for comfort while in the Big Apple. A typical outfit for me, looked something like this:
What I found most intriguing, and I’d never noticed before in previous visits to NYC, is that each branch of a particular store often sells different items. For instance, an H&M in Soho sells clothing that looks vastly different from an H&M uptown. There’s always something new to see that way.
So, I survived getting lost in Central Park, and the weather’s temper tantrum–fluctuating between extreme sunshine and rain–to come to one conclusion: I want to take more style risks…and I want to move somewhere new. Okay, maybe that’s two conclusions.
Any suggestions for where I should move?
(Photos and more discussion from the trip to follow later…I need a vacation from my vacation so that I can work on my travel journal, and upload photos.)

wow, i absolutely love how you showed two completely different outfits, both of which are equally adorable. i tend to dress more like you, but wish i could embody more of that emo-rocker-hippie-bad girl vibe with a fedora and bright flats.
I used to have an edge like the first picture. Then, I was a teacher for three years, and I kind of lost it. I’m hoping to get my edge back!
good to have you back, your trip sounds like a lot of fun. both outfits you posted are really nice, i love the dress in “your” outfit and the fedora in the “new york girl”-picture. hm, where do you wanna move?

looks good, sounds fun. hm i heard Oregon is the place to be right now. nice people pretty atmosphere…
I’ve been thinking of either Chicago or Portland!
Yours is definitely a better look, although mixing both of them up could be pretty fun. My head now imagines an army of identikit girls wandering around New York…not a good look!
OooOO! I wanna see pictures! Lots of pictures!
Not sure where you should move.. hmm… maybe you’re a London girl?
By the way, I like your look much more
Dapper Kid, identikit girls! Hahah!
Ivy, London would be nice…or Dubai!
you should move to vancouver …or …dubai!
Those places are definitely something to consider, Femina!
